THE THINGS THEY SAY:

'There isn't a joke you can tell about (the name) America that I haven't heard... It made me way too different.'

"I hated when they'd call out 'America' and everyone in the classroom would turn around to see whose name it was. I dreaded it. So I used my middle name, Georgina."

UGLY BETTY actress AMERICA FERRERA had a difficult time accepting her patriotic name.
